This is the first time Ben Revere has been traded in the middle of a season, but he has played with a lot of guys who have had the experience of leaving a losing team and landing in the midst of a championship run.

With apologies to the guys in my AL-
only pool who playfully accuse me of
writing about my own players more than
I should ― I suppose it’s only
natural, given I study those players
more routinely ― but this week, I
simply can’t help it.

Josh Donaldson finished the job in the
11th inning by lining a single that
scored Troy Tulowitzki, giving the
Toronto Blue Jays a 7-6 walk-off
triumph over the Kansas City Royals
and new ace Johnny Cueto on Friday
night.
